A Note on the Fundamental Dynamic Flow Characteristics of Conducting Magnetic Fluids : 2nd Report, Constant Pressure Gradient Flow between Two Parallel Plates

Abstract

Assuming that the homogeneous electric field, magnetic field and flow direction were orthogonal to one another, a constant pressure gradient flow between two parallel plates was analytically dlscussed. A set of the system equations for conducting magnetic fluids considering the internal rotation which had been proposed by the authors in a previous report was used. Physical quantities, such as velocity, angular velocity of fluid and suspended particles, were theoretically obtained. The constant pressure gradient flow of conducting magnetic fluids was characterized by some dimensionless parameters (magnetic effect parameter, micropolar effect parameter, electric effect parameter efc.). Effects of these dimensionless parameters on the conducting magnetic fluids flow were invesitigated in detail. Furthermore, the limit of the range for the wall surface coefficient was given when applled electric and magnetic fields existed.
